Twitter statement that once he leaves office, he loses special privilege around having his account suspended. Looks like he'll be booted off that too unless he reigns in the nonsense, which, i suspect he won't.

Happy Friday everyone.... He'll be absolutely done without that....

The moment he is out of office it will be the happiest unfollow I will ever do on social media
 
It’s an interesting insight into a sociopath. The fact that Fox called Arizona is completely irrelevant- the state will be declared at some point - the calling of the result by a news channel is not material but Trump et al see it as a treasonable offence as if it’s material to the outcome.... it’s not. It’s how people voted that matters.

exactly, he won't be coming out with anti Muslim rhetoric, he won't be saying there are 'good people' on both sides at the next White supremacist rally and he won't stand against the BLM movement - of course this will upset the dumb racist twats in the US , but the good will weigh out the bad and he is a emblem of hope for the start of unity in America - agree it will take a long time.

You're misunderstanding the electorate I think. Just because someone votes for something doesn't mean they are 100% committed to that. Take Brexit for example, I voted to leave so am part of the 51.8% but didn't really care if it was canned after seeing the total final vote of the electorate. Many people who voted for Trump will always vote for the GOP out of tradition, habit whatever you call it. And in a general election it is much more complicated with multiple factors to consider and judge the contenders on. Many people on the opposite side will give Biden the chance to prove himself and either reward him or punish him (or the party more likely) at the next chance.

So, the electorate...

Support for the Orange Gimp was 30% more from Muslim voters, the Black male vote went from 13% to 17%, Black female support for Biden down 8%. In Florida, Clinton held a 30%+ support which went to a Biden deficit of -5%, a swing of 35%. Whilst he still had support from the Latino/ Hispanic communities, his overall support went down.

How would you manage this data for talk of 'racism' for the 'current' president?

A day's ride? New Hampshire to Georgia? On a Harley maybe.

Wasn't the delay till inauguration because of getting the results in?

Not the results, but the people!

It used to take a long time to get results in and transmitted to Washington, especially before the telegraph, but even more so, it was to allow time for politicians to get to Washington!

Inauguration used to be even later than it is now. By the 20th century, advances in technology and transportation meant people could travel around the country more quickly, and there was no reason for the "lame-duck" period between Election Day and the inauguration to be so long. Also, in times of national turbulence, the lame-duck period proved to be too long a wait.

During President Herbert Hoover's lame-duck period in 1932, the middle of the Great Depression, Hoover and then-President-elect Franklin Roosevelt barely communicated, leaving the country waiting on the government to take action to curb economic devastation. In response, Congress proposed the 20th Amendment.

There was a debate on when to change it, because it was decided pretty universally that four months was too long to wait.

The Senate originally wanted to change it to Jan. 15, and the House of Representatives suggested Jan. 24, and Jan. 20 was reached as a compromise.

Therefore, the 20th Amendment dictated that the president's term would begin at noon on Jan. 20.

If that lands on a Sunday, a private inauguration is done, then a public one is done on the Monday for the electorate, as happened for Obama!

Your entire argument that progressive was the way to go was absolutely destroyed in this election. Every progressive Democratic Senate candidate got fucking destroyed.

As far as my data shows, there is ONE Progressive senator in the senate.

In the House, no Progressives lost their seat, but added. Incumbent moderate/ corporate Dems lost out.

Do you know what you're talking about?

He views every world event through how it looks on TV. The joke is that he got elected because of how he appeared to be on a fucking TV show that made him out to be God like. He has felt compelled to act that out in every move he made since. Sooner this prick goes the better

No idea. Perhaps they didn't vote just on the issue of racism or didn't personally encounter enough racism themselves to deem it an issue for them. The problem with racists, as you know, is that they hide their feelings very well in public.

I'd say they were swayed by misinformation from social media sites and there was a lot of confused voters out there. In the main, Trump added more fuel to the fire when it come to racial inequity and has done his level best to divide the nation, not unite - Biden will at the very least not come out with ridiculous twitter rants and rhetoric that does more harm than good. You really should give it a rest as you have become so tedious on this and no one agrees with you.

I'd say - if I may - it's utter unscientific to proof non-'racist' behaviour of one person (e.g. Trump) by voting behaviour of other persons (who can have a variety of 1-issue voting reasons).
